| The White Mountains are loaded with some of the most picturesque scenic views
New Hampshire has to offer a motorcyclist. It boasts of the greenest foliage in the summer and most
brilliant hues of reds, yellows, and oranges in autumn. It spans central to northern part of the
state just above the Lakes Region and below the Great North Woods. Some of the highlights include
Mount Washington (the highest mountain in the Northeast), the Flume Gorge, the Basin, Franconia State
Park, and Mount Washington Valley. There are 48 mountains that are over 4000 feet high in the White
Mountain Region. One of its most spectacular byways is the 30 mile stretch of road called the Kancamagus
Highway. It winds through the mountains west from Conway to Lincoln and is free of any signs of
civilization and offers only pristine beauty. Traveling this byway is sure to afford you a glimpse of
the White Mountains splendor. |
